متن کاملPhytase activity as a novel metabolic feature in Bifidobacterium.
Phytase activity has been detected for the first time in Bifidobacterium spp. These bacteria were able to dephosphorylate phytic acid (myo-inositol hexaphosphate, IP(6)) and generate several myo-inositol phosphate intermediates (IP(3)-IP(5)). B. globosum and B. pseudocatenulatum were optimally active at neutral-alkaline pH and B. adolescentis, B. angulatum and B. longum at acid pH. B. pseudocat...
متن کاملCaffeine as a metabolic probe: a comparison of the metabolic ratios used to assess CYP1A2 activity.
1. Caffeine is widely used as an in vivo probe for CYP1A2; the distribution/activity of this enzyme is reported to be reflected by metabolic ratios. 2. Several metabolic ratios using different combinations of urinary metabolites have been used to measure CYP1A2, with varying conclusions on its distribution. 3. A mathematical comparison of five metabolic ratios claiming to reflect CYP1A2 activit...
